Dear Dr. Gourmet,
Your site has helped me so much and thank you. Question: What is the vitamin K difference between roasted beets and pickled beets? What would a serving size be for the pickled beets?
A: Dr. Gourmet Says...
Beets have essentially no Vitamin K so you're safe there.
A good rule of thumb for the serving size of most vegetables is 4 ounces. For instance, 4 ounces of beets is 48 calories. While some veggies will be lower in calories this is a good place to start. Some will have fewer calories and others more but 4 ounces is a good rule of thumb. For instance, 4 ounces of mushrooms is only 25 calories.
Thanks for writing,
Dr. Gourmet
